common room
"Hey Hermione, you look like you have seen a…, well in the muggle world I would say ghost, but we meet them every day, so what happened?"
"Oh hey Harry, haven't seen you in here. I was looking for you. As it is for what I have heard, not for what I have seen. Something said that you found the Room of Requirement."
"The what? Room of Retirement? There are portraits in the headmaster's office."
Hermione smiled at the honest cluelessness of Harry. "No not retirement, requirement, it is a myth like the Chamber of Secrets was. It is said it shows itself if someone is in deep need for something and can take different shapes as well."
"That sounds like a strange room, but since when does a myth upset you? We have met stranger things than that, haven't we?" Hermione could have sworn that there was a bit of disappointment in Harry's face.
"I'm not so sure, I was looking for some spells that maybe could decipher the eggs hissing, as there was a voice, saying we should met in this room, next it said you would know were it would be, but as you don't know we should just forget it. It is dump,…"
"Hermione STOP you started babbling again. Well last time on of us heard a voice, a basilisk was hunting down students. A strange room you said? Well last year I was looking for a loo, but I was on the 7th floor, so there is only a girl's restroom. But that day there was a boy's too, about the tapestry of "Barnabas the Barmy"."
Hermione was looking sceptical "And that makes it strange?"
"That alone not, but as I was leaving, I was thinking about the essay Professor Snape was giving us and then there was a table filled with potion book's, all were opened on usage of mandrakes. It was like the only time I got an E from Snpae."
"Professor Snape, but yeah that sounds strange, but someone could have played a prank on you or even some shy tried to help." Hermione was still sceptical.
"As I was doing my essay, I lost track of time and as I was doing a "tempus", I knew I would be late for astronomy, it would start in about 5 minutes. But as you know I was never late for that class. As I was leaving, I left though a different door, I swear it was not there a minute before and yeah I kind of found myself at the bottom of the tower."
"From the tapestry to astronomy tower… HARRY it would at least take 20 minutes for that!"
"Well the next day I was looking at the spot, a short-cut to astro, would be awesome, but there wasn't even a bathroom there, so I never investigated in it again."
"Ok, now you have me convinced. Let's go!" Hermione was jumping of from the armchair she was sitting on.
"Are you ill? First you hear a voice and then wanting to ignore curfew?" Harry was shocked.
"You said the thing about our second year. There could be danger!" Hermione yelled at Harry.
"But why not going to a teacher? Professor McGonagall's room is like next door."
"When did a teacher ever listened to us?"
"You got a point there, let me at least take my cloak."
5 minutes later on a corridor to the 7th floor
'Hello Harry, Hermione, follow me.'
"Hermione have heard that?" This time Harry has the same expression Hermione had.
"So at least I am not going crazy, that voice has something in it. I feel as I can thrust it, do you feel it to?" Hermione asked out of curiosity.
"Well, now that you say it, yeah I think so, strange."
After silently walking another few minutes, Hermione sighted. There was the tapestry but no door across it.
"I'm sorry Harry, looks like someone wanted to trick me."
"Well now that I think about it, it is called Room of Requirement, maybe we have to require something so it can give it it. Let me try."
"Room can you show yourself? We need to talk to this voice." Would someone from outside look at the two, it would be a funny scene, two teens yelling at a wand inside a dark corridor. Well at least until a door appeared.
